So, is the manga worth reading?

If you liked the anime and want an ending, yes.

So, is the manga worth reading?

If you liked what you saw in the anime yes, but start over from the beginning as characters and some major plot details are dropped that are important later.

 

[lazybones18]

Goodbye Makina

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

She sure wants that warden

 

[Crocodile]

So did a few of them escape?

The manga shows that he was at the epicenter of the great quake and seeing all that death as a child mentally scarred him, then when he was a bit older he got attacked by people and called evil for existing (for some reason). Then the accident happens, guy asks him to "save him" and that's when he snaps, kills them, and reveals that death is the true salvation Buddha wants to give people.

It's not much more

Eh, doesn't really much for me. Cray for the sake of cray it feels like. I guess just the execution is lacking.

 

[ramoisdead]

Hey Warden, you never answered her question about dem shoulders gettin' rubbed...

 

[zedreamcast]

AND THIS SHOW WAS NEVER CONTINUED!!!

 

[Line_HTX]

Those Makina red nails, MM-MMM

 

[Grexeno]

You can't literally translate songs: Exhibit A

 

[Schadenfreude]

Not a very good song.

 

[grandjedi6]

So who did the warden recapture?

 

[Imperial Bishop]

More terribad singing.

 

[Raxus]

And the series just...ends.

I am glad I saw it though. It got me into the manga which is a fun read.

Yeah, that's a general issue with DMWL across the board even in the manga, it's still enjoyable if you shut your brain off and enjoy it as a dumb shonen series.

[MetatronM]

IT SURE IS WEIRD, GANTA!

 

[Zonic]

AND THAT'S THE END OF THE SERIES.

SHINY SHINY

 

[blitzwolf215]

He's still framed for the murder and everyone hates him for it. He'd get kill if he got out.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Sure
SHINY SHINY

 

[Akainu]

Yes, weird...

 

[Schadenfreude]

GANTA YOU STUPID MOTHERFUCKER. SHE IS THE RED MAN.

 

[Grexeno]

......................You are stupid

 

[lazybones18]

Yeah, over-thinking it

 

[grandjedi6]

And the series ends with Ganta being too dense to put two and two together.

 

[Htown]

. . . that's how they end it?

 

[Man God]

BWAHAHAHA.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

The final SHINY SHINY

 

[Crocodile]

Wait was something cut? It just ends like that? LAME

 

[ramoisdead]

It just...ends???

Oh well, SHINY SHINY

For the last time =[

 

[Tamanon]

Hey, here's several different plot elements and questions. Have fun with the next episode ever......oh wait.

 

[Takashi]

[mightynine]

C'mon Ganta, get that penny to droppin'.

 

[CragMan241]

The last SHINY SHINY till they decide to rerun this whenever.

 

[B-Dubs]

AND THAT'S THE END OF THE SERIES.

YOU GUYS EXCITED FOR AOT NEXT WEEK?!

Hopefully we'll get season 2 of Dandy after...

 

[TheOGB]

Welp, that's it. That's the show.

[Zonic]

Yeah, this is the very definition of an anime that just "stops" & you need to go read the manga.

 

[aspiegamer]

MAYBE THE RED MAN IS SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO YOU!!!!1

I love how he doesn't piece this together in the manga until literally the last instant.

Side note to people bummed this is it for the series, the manga runs on for quite awhile and is actually pretty good. Yes, the escapees get the word out. No, it doesn't close the place down. Quite the opposite.

 

[lazybones18]

AND THAT'S THE END OF THE SERIES.

YOU GUYS EXCITED FOR AOT NEXT WEEK?!

Fuck AOT

 

[BassForever]

That last scene was added to the anime which is why it feels especially awkward, that was literally the best thing the anime team could think of to give the anime an "ending"... yeah

 

[Takashi]

12 episodes should automatically be classified as SHIT!

but FLCL tho

 

[Schadenfreude]

See ya next week, ToonamiGAF. Prepare yourselves for SAOpcalypse.

 

[Crocodile]

Ganta: "You know Shiro, we really are the Deadman Wonderland"

That's what that "ending" feels like

Also, boy does Toonami get shittier next week :/

And i love how he ignores the fact that shiro knows a song his mother wrote.
like ganta isnt that a bit weird?????

That's a pretty lame ending
